T-Mobile to Use Android on Tablet PC, Home Phone.

In a move that will likely see a minuscule jump in the number of people using Googleň€™s mobile operating system, Android, T-Mobile has announced that the company will use the software on two new devices for the home. T-Mobile is planning to debut a new home phone and soon after a tablet computer, both running Android, reports the New York Times citing confidential documents obtained from one of the companyň€™s partners. The phone will plug into a docking station and come with another device that handles data synchronization as it recharges the phoneň€™s battery. While weň€™re all for netbooks and tablets running Android (we canň€™t wait to see how Android handles on anything that isnň€™t the G1), weň€™re wondering what on Earth T-Mobile is doing launching a home phone right now? Much like AT&Tň€™s effort to reinvent the landline, weň€™re not all that impressed at the idea. No doubt it will be a device you can use to check the weather, news, sports scores, store phone numbers, addresses and appointments. What a novel idea. If only the world had more devices like it. What about you? Are you tired of hearing about ň€śdevicesň€ť that might get to see Android instead of seeing manufacturers actually using it? Weň€™re really holding out for HP on this one. That said, once T-Mobile unclenches and actually releases some details about these products we"d love to hear more about that tablet device mentioned in the reports.
